Like They Seen a Ghost

Once, I was an angel. Heard symphonies. Had no cares. Never had to worry. But, pride ensnared my heart And constricted my spirit unjust And I fell from glory and into the world of Lust What ungodly creatures are bound to this Hell? What luxurious prison have they created? With lies for epic and magical stories to tell? All distractions from the reality of what is to befall That GOD will be known in all his excellent glory when the trumpets call And while here on this earth, man spit on me Told me I was unkind, tried to beat the Love of GOD Out of me over and over with time Laughed as I bled and turned black and blue And kicked me as I tried to rise from the muck and grime of their dew And hate filled my broken my heart Black tar, eroded all hope, compassion thereof Until, I emerged from the ashes of Hell, the dirt and sin As a QUEEN GODDESS through mercy, grace and love And I will see their faces again. And fear of GOD Will strike their hearts. As though they have seen a ghost.
